Belehrende und unterhaltende Jugendbibliothek
An instructional and entertaining youth library published in 1844 by Verlag von Ed. Laue, edited by August Lüben and Carl Heinemann, aimed at German children. The single picture is a green-tinted Art Nouveau style title vignette, with a child cradling a bundle of tulips beneath a banner reading 'Mein Buch', a ladybird and a dark shoe at the foot. A designer could take its flowing botanical framing, scroll banner lettering and limited two-tone green palette for a decorative title panel.
